POV Clock

povclock POV ClockThe POV (persistence of vision) clock is an amazing looking wall clock which uses a bank of LED’s which rotate around so fast that the image created looks like a solid image. The spinning blade which contains the LED’s can display in red, green and blue making it possible to get full colour images.

A microcontroller is used with onboard memory that is responsible for displaying the images while the blade rotates on a regular computer type fan. The creators of the POV Clock have also included a remote control system in to the design allowing you to switch between the various functions without leaving your arm chair. By connecting it up to an optional upload module you can also upload your own animations on to the clock face.

The clock will be available at various places later on this year mentioned on the video. Look out for it on eBay.
